This week I had the wood Sensenich W72CK42 removed and my new metal McCauley 1A90/CF7442 installed. I flew a couple tests with the wood, switched props and then flew a couple tests with the metal. I had a big smile on my face that first takeoff with the new metal prop!

Rough sky so couldn't get a good handle on any change in cruise speed.
